Tom and Mike, Sidemount Silesia and thelonghose.com have put a lot of work in this video.(9 minutes HD)
We found that information on S-drills on SM was hard to find, especially for new divers.
4 types of exits, with lots of details,
Singlefile, donor on the left/right and direct ascent face to face.
Enjoy,

(Please, let us NOT start the longhose and shorthose discussion all over again ):no:
 
will check it out later. Did you do this with multiple hose configurations or just one? That has been and will continue to be the issue with Sidemount S-Drills, they are different for every diver depending on how their hoses are set up
 
We use thelonghose on the right and the shorthose on the left. LPI on the right and drysuit on the left.
This way seems to be the most common way of routing the last few years.
That also opens another discussion ;-)
 
I'll agree on everything but the inflators, the most common is drysuit right, inflator left at least in the US, should be the same for the Razor and xDeep though as the inflators come over from the left side of the diver.
 
Very nicely done, but I'm watching wondering "What's the point?" Having to do it implies at least two catastrophic failures of my rig.
